We've had a nice week so far. Mild temperatures get me in the mood for looking at seed catalogs! What to plant? We usually have garlic, onion, asparagus (not old enough to harvest yet), rhubarb, tomatoes, bell peppers, potatoes, cayan peppers, carrots, beets, turnips, collards, okra, musk melons, cantaloupe, Cranshaw melons, yellow squash,acorn squash, zucchini, Jerusalem artichokes, cucumbers... A few years ago we also had popcorn. That grew really well.
My friend Michelle and I took a day trip to Baker Creek Seeds last year. Baker Creek Seed Company That was fun! I hope we're going to go again this year. Michelle and her husband Jerry are coming to visit today, so I'll talk to her about that while they're here.
Here's a picture from a few years ago, just the harvest one morning. Things were growing really well!
Here's what our garden looked like last spring when we plowed it, getting ready to plant. This was taken April 10th last year.
My niece Tricia is having her second baby in July. I've picked out the yarn and pattern I want to use to crochet her an afghan. You can see it on Ravelry, link is here... Tricia's baby afghan. I've got to print out the instructions, then I can get started. I love starting a new project!
Cricket and I took a walk down the hollow to the stream. It's running, slowly but running. This is the melt from our sleet/ice/snow storm earlier this month. We're supposed to have rain this weekend. That would be nice!
I spent part of the day burning leaves yesterday. My back is aching today from raking! I originally hurt my back while I was raking leaves, back in May 1999... and believe me, it really hurt! I blew out 3 disks! OUCH! My back went POP! I fell down on the ground and just laid there for about half and hour before I could even try to get up. That was the pits!
Living life in rural Arkansas with my husband Johnnie and stepson Joshua. Johnnie and I both have Parkinson's disease. This makes life a challenge, but we're living a full life with each other as best we can. We really enjoy living in the woods. We spend our days making things, eating good food, watching a movie or two on TV. We enjoy learning new things and keeping our life focused on the positive.

A foggy morning
It's cool and foggy this morning. We had rain and drizzle all day yesterday. So, I took some bread dough out of the freezer to thaw and rise. I added the first addition of flour this morning.
We spent the day yesterday all snug inside. We found this great app for my touchpad called Twonky. It allows me to view Youtube videos on our TV using my touchpad and our Roku. Very cool. If you're a Youtube fan with a touchpad and a Roku, check it out. Download the app to your touchpad and add the Twonky channel to your Roku... Happy viewing!
I took a few spring pictures while I was out feeding the birds this morning. Spring is on the way!
I talked to our friend Erika today, and she's not having a good day. She hurt her back and is really having difficulty. I'm so sorry you're hurting Erika. :(
